Hello Gents
Im replaceing my old, Worn out and let's face it, less than acurate USA Airborne gear, and wondered who has what, just so I blend in more. Also which sub unit do you portray?

Thanks for helping me make up my mind lol.

TBH mate, It's all the same to me, this set is just for US only battles, since I have full UK and German Airborne kit, i thought my US gear may as well be A/B as well. slightly sliding towards 82nd as they actually managed to capture their bridge in tact, not really interested in 17th as it has limited scope, and TBH.

Limited scope..

Seeing most of the 17th as made of 82nd & 101st Vets.

I didnt know that mate. But I meant 82nd & 101st stuff can be worn for Torch, Sicily/Italy, not to mention Normandy and holland as well as Norway.

Yes mate, but I was looking at doing the div that most blokes do, just to blend in as it were
